Description

The battle between scotch drinkers and bourbon drinkers has been raging since the taxman forced the first Scots-Irish distillers into the mountains of Kentucky. Well, now you can eat your cake and have it too with ’23rd Street Distillery Hybrid Whisk(e)y”. They blend 5-year-old scotch with 2-year-old bourbon and then but the resulting brew back into the bourbon casks for polishing. The result is an unusually delicious and highly distinctive whisk(e)y that has a sweet sherried aroma with light smoky and floral notes and tastes. It lays lightly on the tongue with a malty flavour rich with sherry tones and just a hint of the oily nuttiness added from the fired oak bourbon barrels.
